Best Salons for Getting Hair Extension

Sometimes the desire to grow long hair just doesn’t click. For them, hair extensions are a great boon. These are not wigs, but hair strands of certain length which, when fitted on the scalp along with your natural hair, can blend wonderfully with the already existing natural hairs of the scalp. The hair can be bought according to your color and style needs.

Many hair extension salons are there which provide hair extension services.

Types of hairs used

There are two types of hairs used – human and synthetic hairs. Each has its own pros and cons.

• Human hair can last up to 1 year with proper maintenance. Synthetic hair can last maximum 1 -3 months.
• Human hair, like natural hair is affected by humidity and can be color treated. Humidity has no effect on synthetic hair and coloring is a big no-no for synthetic hair as it will cause irreparable damage.
• Price range for human hair is $90 - $500 while for synthetic hair is $50 - $100.

Techniques used for hair extension

• Fusion technique
• Clip-in technique

Fusion technique is the most preferred for long lasting extensions (up to 6 months). This method is also the safest method used by most hair extension salons. Fusing the extensions with your own hair is what is done in fusion method. Individual batch of hair extensions are glued on to the scalp with special glue and concealed with your own hair.

The extensions may become loose after sometime as your own hair grows every month, taking along the extension away from the scalp as it grows. Any hair extension salon hairdresser can reattach them for you.
